It runs on the same model as the Scout and stays blind by its input: it sees only the ticker, the side, the cited items (the catalyst), a one-line factual claim and the fact card, never the Scout's thesis or levels. It answers pass, wait or reject; code turns a 'mostly priced in' pass into a wait. A weekly canary (a past event whose move was already in the price) checks that it still says no.
8-K Item 2.02 with EX-99.1 Q3 2026 production/deliveries release matches the claim; broker items confirm deliveries topped expectations.
Live move is already redacted today with no completed close since the news (move since the news (σ)=redacted), so the reaction is unconfirmed and near the chase…
Volume does not confirm the spike: last day's volume vs normal=redacted, below a normal session.
Move is stock-specific, not beta: spx/ndx/sector moves since news are 0 and move vs sector=redacted.
Crowding low: redacted below the 52-week high, short interest redacted of float, days to cover redacted.
Catalyst is a routine operational update: copper and gold production 'approximated expectations', no beat or raise; the 60koz gold deferral is a timing shift, not a positive.
Live move is already redacted (redacted) on the news day, with no completed close yet; entering now is chasing the reaction.
Move is stock-specific, not sector beta: XLB materials ETF was redacted (redacted) while FCX is up redacted.
Crowding is low: redacted short interest, redacted from 52w high, redacted off low, volume vs normal redacted(no climax).

8-K EX-99.1 states Japan MHLW approved Optune Pax for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer, matching the claim exactly.
Approval is a hard, new regulatory catalyst; news age 0 sessions and filing age 0.24 days, so nothing is stale or restated.
Reaction is flat-to-slightly-against: close sigma redacted live redacted, move vs sector redacted so no chase and no stock-specific move against the long.
Crowding elevated: redacted short interest of float, redacted, volume vs normal redacted, but redacted below the 52-week high and redacted…
The cited item is a pre-market earnings preview listing consensus expectations, not a report of results; the claim that Jabil 'reported' is not supported by the item.
The stock is down redacted on the close since the news and redacted live, with a redacted gap — a reaction clearly against a long.
Relative move of redacted versus NDX redacted and XLK redacted shows this is stock-specific, not sector or index beta.
Volume ratio redactedand trend down with 5-day return redacted indicate a climax move already fully expressed against the long side.
